About this short report

As you read your short report, or any other astrological report, keep in mind that the energies interpreted here are your birth potentials. However, you may or may not choose to actualize these energies in the manner described. Your age, sex, socio-economic situation, education, environment, level of development, and many other factors contribute to the ways in which you express your natal energies. Remember, the planets do not compel you to do or be anything. They influence you, but you still have the free will to determine your own life.

Neptune conjunction IC: Inner strength

Mid-April 2016 until mid-February 2018: The danger of this influence is that it is likely to
kick your props out from under you. In any activity that is important to you, something may
happen that will make it very difficult to continue in your present direction. This event is
probably not something that can easily be foreseen, and it will be difficult to describe even
as it is happening. It can take the form of a psychological crisis that results in your
feeling that you cannot go on. You may feel suddenly weak and ineffectual, even though others
may not be able to see any reason for this. It is also possible that events in your most
personal life will make it difficult to continue in your public or social relationships with
the self-confidence and assurance that you need to be at your best. There may be domestic
problems or difficulties with members of your immediate family. Someone very close to you may
be doing or saying things to you that are very discouraging.

But this influence can also have another effect. You may no longer feel like advancing in
your external social roles now, because you feel they have become meaningless and empty. You
may want to withdraw a bit and look at your life in terms of your own criteria instead of
others' and ask whether you are accomplishing what you yourself want to, rather than what
others want. Sometimes in life we go ahead too fast and lose track of our original purposes.
This is an excellent time to sit back and look at whether this has happened to you.

Many important elements of your life may come to an end and pass out of existence now. Let
them go, for it is the right time for this to happen, and it will ultimately be good. This is
a time to renounce those things, for you will soon discover that you do not really need them
anyway. As the old saying goes, we are naked when we come into this world and when we leave
it. Therefore what we have inside is important. Now is the time for you to find the strength
of what you have inside.

End of April 2017 until end of March 2018: This influence stimulates your emotional life. You
will experience your own feelings and allow yourself to look at the world subjectively. Your
own inner feelings and your attitudes toward the world will seem as important as whatever you
consider to be true or real in the external world. At this time you feel what you want to
feel.

This effect manifests itself in a variety of ways. First of all, you will demand more
emotional satisfaction in your relationships. It will not be enough for a relationship simply
to go on as it has. If your existing friendships and love relationships do not meet your
needs, you will find new ones that do. Your goal is freedom of emotional self-expression and
experience.

Another manifestation of this influence is that you are likely to make changes in your home
environment, demanding that it too be more emotionally satisfying. At this time it is not
enough that your house is adequate to keep out the rain. You want it to be as interesting and
stimulating as any other aspect of your life.

As your ability to experience your inner life is stimulated, your imagination will also be
stimulated. You will see how you can make your life more interesting in areas that you had
never considered before. Also the intellectual and emotional functions of your mind are more
unified now. This is an extremely good time for creative work, not because it directly
stimulates creativity, but because it makes you see and feel from new perspectives, which
gives your creative work a new freshness and innovative quality.

Uranus square Mars: With a little discretion

End of May 2017 until end of January 2019: Watch out for impulsive actions, rash decisions and
other actions that may have sudden, unexpected consequences and undesirable results in the
future. You may feel that your ego is at stake in some way and that you have to assert
yourself now regardless of the risk of getting involved in an accident.

There may be considerable tension with others who seem to be in your way all the time. It may
be difficult to avoid disputes and "blowing up" at others. This influence challenges your
sense of security and just how much you believe you can assert yourself. The more insecure
you are, the more likely you are to do something rash as a way of saying to the world that you
are a person to be reckoned with. Authority figures who limit your freedom of movement and
self-expression are very likely targets for your rebellion, which may be through petty acts or
through larger actions that could get you into difficulties. It is not that you are wrong in
wanting to assert yourself, but that the ways you choose to do this are not very well
considered or effective. Do what you must, but act with a little discretion.

Quite often the effects of this influence are more unconscious; that is, you will not be aware
of the feeling described above. This can lead to unconscious eruptions of the energy that can
be quite disruptive.

The only real answer to this influence is to try to achieve some security about who you are
and what you are doing. Then you will not feel such a great need to break free and take rash
and ill-considered actions. You may still feel obliged to do something that is a significant
break from your normal routine, but it will not be so destructive.

Saturn conjunction Uranus: Fundamental changes

End of December 2017 until beginning of October 2018: This is an extremely powerful influence,
for it represents powerful internal forces for change colliding with powerful resistance from
the external world. You are trying to escape the routine, dull and ordinary aspects of your
life. You try to find new things that will make your life more exciting and stimulating. But
with every effort of this kind, circumstances, duties and obligations seem to hold you back
and keep you stuck in an oppressive situation.

You may get to a point where the pressure is unbearable, and then you will make a sudden break
for freedom. You may suddenly leave a relationship, an oppressive situation or your place of
residence, without warning anyone.

On the other hand, it may be possible to create a balance that enables you to sustain a great
deal of tension over a long period of time and accomplish a great many changes in a highly
structured way. Tasks of considerable difficulty are often accomplished under this influence,
and people make Herculean efforts that would otherwise be impossible for them. Serious study
and long-range projects requiring great concentration and effort can be undertaken.

Even though this may seem more productive, it really depends upon your situation. Very often
a sudden break with what feels like an oppressive situation will clear the air and allow you
to make a new and better beginning. On the other hand, it can cost you more than you are
willing to pay. But the patient, hard-working manifestation of this energy may create severe
mental and physical tensions, even to the point of physical illness. You have to decide what
you can handle realistically and determine for yourself the proper course of action. At this
time in your life you must make changes at the most fundamental levels. If you do not, in
approximately fourteen years the consequences of not making these changes will become very
obvious, and you will be confronted with the same issues again under more difficult
circumstances.

Beginning of February 2018 until beginning of October 2018: Traditionally this is considered
one of the most marvelous influences, and indeed it is quite good. At the very least, you will
feel good at this time. Your health is good, and you feel very optimistic. For a while it
may seem that everything is working out perfectly, and if you make an effort, it will. But if
you simply sit back and enjoy this time, its beneficent influence will pass away with little
to show for it afterward.

This is the beginning of a new twelve-year cycle of growth in your life. It is a time to
initiate new projects and expand your activities so that you can experience life from a
broader perspective. You may find that you can escape from some narrowing and inhibiting
circumstance that has prevented you from realizing your full potential as a human being.
Sometimes people travel under this configuration, but usually the traveling is more in the
mind.

This is a good time to study a subject that raises your consciousness or expands your view of
the world, and it is an excellent time for going back to school. You may also meet new people
who expose you to aspects of life that you have never known before. Your freedom will
certainly increase.

Even with this influence there are some pitfalls. First of all, your exuberant optimism can
cause you to overdo or overreach yourself, so that when this time is over, you find yourself
out on the proverbial limb. Exercise a certain amount of restraint and build upon what you
have rather than trying to increase your holdings beyond your ability to handle them. Be
careful of extravagance, and if you invest money, remember that today's luck is not permanent.

Uranus opposition Venus: Enjoy the present

Beginning of May 2018 until beginning of April 2019: Your love life and relationships will be
the sources of change in your life at this time. A loved one may become restless and begin to
question the basis of your relationship. She may demand more freedom and ask that the
relationship be changed considerably. A good relationship probably will not break up, but all
kinds of tension will surface that you and your partner may not have dealt with before. You
should allow this to happen and not try to smooth over feelings that should be expressed.

It is also possible that you may be the one who becomes restless and demands a change in the
relationship. You may begin to feel that it has become boring, so you seek out a new
relationship that will provide the excitement that you feel is lacking. Under this influence
people often form relationships that would seem highly improbable to themselves and others
under other circumstances. The problem is that there is a real ambiguity in your mind about
yourself and your relationships. You want to be close to people and to be free at the same
time. Consequently you will be attracted to relationships that either express your desire for
freedom or that are impossible to consummate, as described above. For this reason you should
not expect any relationship formed under this influence to last very long. It could last, but
you should not expect it. This is a good time to enjoy the present. Don't live in the
future!

It would be much better to use this energy to redefine and change your existing relationships,
if they have anything at all to offer, so that they are a more complete expression of yourself
and your loved ones. The best relationships are those in which the compromises that you make
do not require you to become a different person.

If you are working in a creative art form, this will be a tremendously stimulating period.
You may not get much actual work done, but you will be exposed to new ideas and techniques,
which later you will be able to integrate into your overall technique.
